Midwest Express

Pros: New planes, comfortable seats, delicious food, and friendly service
Cons: Limited routes, especially on the signature service

We recently flew on Midwest airlines from Milwaukee to Washington's Reagan National Airport... We began looking for a flight from several different cities including Minneapolis, Chicago O'hare and Midway, Madison, and of course Milwaukee. We did ...

Pros: WARM COOKIES! Painless organization of tourists.
Cons: Only flight to Tampa at 8 in the morning, from Milwaukee. No gate at Tampa.

As the holiday time neared I realized that United (my typical carrier) was sold out for a flight to Tampa. I decided to go with rave reviews and schlep to Milwaukee to fly to Tampa. The price was right, $330. The only drawback was staying in a hotel,...

Pros: Roomy seats, comfortable flight, warm cookies.
Cons: Very high ticket change fees, poor customer service, after a hospitalization/surgery required trip change

I moved out to Washington DC from San Diego to do a summer internship for graduate school. I purchased my return ticket, one-way, on Midwest Airlines online for $160. While in DC, I was hospitalized for 10 days with a bowel obstruction and had to have ...

Pros: Good prices
Cons: Horrible seats, limited routes

Once upon a time, Midwest was my ideal carrier. Wide, comfortable seats, absolutely wonderful and truly "midwest" staff, and great prices. Those days are over. I heard that Northwest bought them out, which is a total loss. They've lost their personal ...

Pros: I didn't get far enough to experience any of these
Cons: Their unexplainable policies are horrible. Refuse to work with you.

Everything I read about Midwest on their website was all about their customer service and how great they are. Lies. I flew to Michigan for my wedding after getting laid off and decided that I would spend more time in Michigan rather than flying ...

Pros: Chocolate chip cookies
Cons: Filthy aircraft, rude staff, lied about broken aircraft

Based on the reviews on this site, I expected a decent ravel experience on Midwest Express. Instead ...

Pros: Seats, Leg room, Friendliness, and Cookies
Cons: Limited flight schedule and frequent Milwaukee layovers.

I recently flew Midwest Airlines for the first time April 8-11, 2008 from Kansas City to Minneapolis. My 6'5" husband and I were pleased with the amount of room and comfort of the seats. We also enjoyed the in-flight warm chocolate chip cookies. All of ...

Pros: Attentive attendants who extend unmatched inflight service. Chocolate chip cookies!
Cons: As typical with a regional airline, Midwest has a limited route map.

For many years, I've remained a loyal, card-carrying member of Skymiles, Delta Airline's frequent flyer program. And other than a round-tripper on AirTran, I've flown ONLY Delta to the tune of some fifty flights over the past five years, ...

Pros: Wonderful, efficient staff, great customer service.
Cons: Older airplanes are a bit scary.

I have used Midwest Express several times, and only one of the experiences really sticks out in my mind. I can't recall anything about the others which means that they were fine. But the one experience I do remember I want to share. I had booked a ...

Pros: Everything
Cons: They don't travel to as many destinations as the other airlines.

Before I even boarded my first Midwest Express plane, I knew that there was something special about this airline. They offered myself and fellow passengers complimentary coffee and our choice of newspapers while waiting for the plane to arrive.
The...

Pros: Good in-flight service
Cons: Poor on ground service

We are long time Midwest Express fliers and it's true, they do have great service in the air. Comfortable leather seats, two across, good food served on china, unlimited wine, most flights non stop, etc... However, on a recent flight, my wife fell...

Pros: Incredible service, great food and drinks, leather-covered seats with lots of legroom
Cons: Limited destinations at the moment, prices slightly higher than major airlines

I flew Midwest Express for the first time this past December from Kansas City to Milwaukee. I had avoided ME in the past due to the fact that their codeshare Skyway Airlines flies tiny propeller planes into Lansing, MI, a city to which I travel...

Pros: Exactly, they are Pros at air travel!
Cons: only one, not enough routes

Midwest express is hard to describe, they do everything right, from counter to the baggage claim at the other end, great food, exellent service, roomy seats, attentive staff, smooth flights and landings
I have flown coach, business and first class...

Pros: Roomy seats, on-time flights
Cons: They don't fly everywhere, a little more expensive at times

I've been delighted to fly Midwest Express on two different trips, and both of my experiences have been positive ones.

I was welcomed aboard by friendly attendants who promptly helped with my stroller and luggage, and seated in roomy seats...

Pros: Comfortable seating + good food = a pleasant flight!
Cons: Not enough flights

I recently complete my second round-trip flight from San Francisco to Milwaukee on Midwest Express, and intend to always use this airline if possible.
ME was recommended to me by my brother, who had flown with them in the past. I usually fly...
